AurisMy Brugges haul #BobbinLace
Finally finished this project I started in February. It's the first piece of Martina Wolter-Kampmann's Brussels Flower lace class. #BobbinLace
mem_somervilleBut I got a different challenge. I got the pillow with the tangle. But I kind of love a tangle challenge. The first rule of untangle: work the lowest (closest to you) tangle first. Work up. And I got there! I did a few stitches to stabilize the end and tied it off. I'll give it an Orvus wash later.
When we get the other piece we'll send it back to her. I hope she can do something nice with it. #BobbinLace #WIPWednesday 2/2
ConnyNeuer Klöppelbrief begonnen... wer sich damit auskennt: wird das ein Roseground? (Und bitte nicht zu weit runter gucken, ich weiß, dass die Klöppel irgendwie seltsam sortiert sind, aber ka) ich kann mir immer nicht merken, ob von links oder rechts weiter geht und im Moment ist das Prinzip Chaos (also die nächsten Freien Klöppel machen weiter). Was wäre da richtig?
@thegoblinwitch Ah, yeah--Nottingham isn't my favorite for beginner books, but some people love it. A lot of people started with her.
My current favorite beginner book is Jan Tregidgo's book linked below. But if you want to check it out there's a copy of it on the Internet Archive. It's very step-by-step thorough.
kit lecter 🦇👹Some of the books I ordered arrived this morning.
Disappointed in the bobbin lace book, it's not really geared towards beginners, so I'll be using it more as an addition and looking for other resources to get me started.
The book on Norse Myths is a lot bigger than I expected, but so pretty! And the illustrations are great! Can't wait to read it.
But I am starting with Confessions of a Mask today.

This #lace event filled up faster than they expected--so they have moved it from Zoom so they can host more people.
If you didn't catch it before it "sold out" before, you can try again now. Details in this Insta post.

ErmelineWollknollEs ist Mal wieder langes Klöppelwochenende. Mein Ziel: das Projekt von der angenagten (Shubia ist Schuld) grünen Platte auf die kariert bezogene umziehen. Der Schal ist inzwischen ca 70 cm lang.

I recently learned about Elizabeth Perkins Wildes Bourne. She was apparently a talented weaver in #Maine, widely known for her counterpanes (coverlets). Reportedly one was in the White House with the Madisons.
Someone overpainted her portrait at some point, and I want to do very bad things to that person. I cannot fathom why they did this to her.
Painting is at the Brick Store Museum in Maine and I plan to visit her soon. I need to see her lace up close.
